Disable/Turn off Smart Licensing Warnings

[tltl4866]

Hello all,

Is there any way (or a thread I can refer to) on turning off any smart licensing warnings (or any unwanted warnings for that matter)?

Currently our log is being bombarded with the following message: "Communication failure with the Cisco Smart License Utility (CLSU)" and this makes debugging really difficult. This is an expected message as this switch is not connected directly to the internet or any other Cisco services; It's only being used internally.

There are two ways to do that:  

1.  Read FN - 72323 - Cisco IOS XE Software: QuoVadis Root CA 2 Decommission Might Affect Smart Licensing, Smart Call Home, and Other Functionality

2.  Logging discriminator

conf t
 logging discriminator FO_CSL facility drops SMART_LI|CALL
 logging buffered discriminator FO_CSL 40960
 logging  console discriminator FO_CSL
 logging  monitor discriminator FO_CSL
end

Hi,

I think there's also a 3rd way to do that

conf t
 license smart transport off

conf t
 license smart transport off

hi 

Do I not need to reboot using the above commands?

Hi, 

There's no need for any reboot. 

Smart licensing modifications do not require any reboot.
